Battle Camp

I love competitive shows like The Amazing Race. The first one I've ever watched was actually Fear Factor so when I heard about this show I decided to watch it. I thought it would be similar. It was not. Couldn't even finish the first episode because the people are so shallow and stupid. They all think they are the best ones yet all they do is scream. It's all so fake. If the participants aren't interesting then the show is never going to be good. Also, why are they showing us their snot and spit? It's disgusting!!!! This was just awful! Do yourself a favor and avoid it at all cost! Another failed Netflix attempt.

Chase DeMoor and his team were full of hypocrites with so many double standards. They kept doing dirty things in private while slurring others to do the same. They never deserve to win. I doubt the programme producer already decided who won right at the beginning of the show, and the wheel is not really random. Full of racial discrimination connotation - I can't believe it can blatantly released. Watch this if you fancy injustice and silliness. Really felt sick when I saw the nasty face and communications form them. One of the worst shows next to Traitor episode 3 you could ever watched and imagined.

Netflix reality shows have been a mixed bag. This cast somewhat represents that being that they're all from Netflix reality shows, but from a wide variety granted. It was boring to see certain individuals on the show crumble under the pressure of a competition show but the ones from more competitive shows managed to keep it interesting. The host is a bit generic but isn't annoying or grating in anyway and that's honestly hard to do these days. He even manages to be fairly sensitive and personable at times. Just wish he would be a bit more firm when some people chicken out or make dumb moves.

This shows major characteristic is however the wheel of misfortune/ the final wheel of fortune. It makes it unique yes, but it makes it a gamble for taking out great players who just happen to be on the board once. Not the worst flaw, it adds drama, but at the expense of having players the audience might want to see win.

Ultimately I do think this more wide variety skills based competition is a good choice for Netflix reality, even if it's very similar to *cough* The Challenge *cough*. If they can bring in cast members as interesting as Trey, Lorenzo, Shuby, and Avori again I'll watch another season.

Loved it!!!

I basically just watched this in search of new reality competition shows since I've been waiting forever for new episodes of The Amazing Race and The Floor. And I totally loved it, rewatched it again and followed the cast as well.

It was interesting due to the show's premise and backdrop, but what sealed the deal was the cast. The cast chemistry was phenomenal and the music actually slaps - tbh, one of the few shows I watched that did the background music right...I actually ended up watching some of the shows the cast were in especially Georgia's!!

Totally recommended for people looking for something fun, interesting, and exciting to watch.

All I can say, please make season 2 now!

Battle Camp is a fun show! As far as competition shows go, it has it all... drama, alliances, action, and a new element... luck! The wheel determines who stays or goes so while game play and strategy are important, anyone can go when the wheel is spun. This makes for some really dramatic moments. The cast is fun and likeable (except when they're not!) and the element of teams really makes you root for the people you like most. There doesn't seem to be contrived conflict and you can tell that genuine friendships develop between cast members. This show is worth a watch and I can't wait for Season 2!
